Next to the "QSO map" page, it has been located a new page called "Entities", from which it is possible to see the list of the countries we worked on. The visualization occurs through a list of flags, an image presenting the number of countries confirmed and a graph from which you can see the progression during time of the countries in which we worked. The last 2 representations can be uses also in external web sites (for example the own web-sites or QRZ.com). As you can do for the "QSO map" page, you can deactivate this page from the Login page -> Privacy.

Quick links

From the new page "Quick links", it is possible to visualize the list of links useful in external web-sites (for example the own web-site or on QRZ.com) To access the page, it is necessary to log in with your own username.

Instant QSL

On the page "Quick link", it can be find an advice regarding the insertion of a macro in DM780. By inserting this macro in the 73 message, it is given the possibility for our receiver to see his/her electronic QSL practically in real time (at the saving of QSO).

Many thanks for the QSOYour instant QSL on http://iqsl.hrdlog.net/<his:callsign>My paper QSL card is sure via ...The best 73, ..

As described in the message, this iQSL doesn’t want to substitute the traditional transmission system but it just would like to make our conversation more kind. The name Instant QSL (iQSL) substitutes the previous "QSL Deluxe".

Dropbox integration

The experiment on the integration with Dropbox has started. Dropbox is a virtual box which makes available for you 2GB of disk space accessible from every PC and mobile devices. As soon as this first step will be completed, it will be possible to activate a daily copy of your own logbook in a Dropbox folder, increasing in that way the availability and security of your data. By doing this experiment, the backup and restore voices have been reorganized and put under the menu "Backup and restore".

Now there is the opportunity to create an e-mail alias on HRDLOG.net.The alias allows anyone to send a message to you without knowing your real e-mail address. For example, if you send an email to iw1qlh @ hrdlog.net , the email will be automatically forwarded to the real mail inbox even if the sender is not required to know it.This function can be useful if you want an e-mail address easy to remember (callsign @ hrdlog.net) or if you don’t want to let your real address be known or if you want an address which doesn’t change during the time.To activate the function Login -> Modify profile -> Mail alias.
